grabing data from url
- by Syom
i have a task - i must grab some data from the URL. the link is http://cba.am.
the data, i want to take, are in the some table, and i have the only one identifier, to reach my wanted data, it's the word "usd", which writes in that table(html)!
i've written the following script, and it works! but i never heard how more experienced programers do such things, so i want to hear your comments.
here is script
<?php
$str = file_get_contents("http://cba.am/");
$key_usd = "USD";
$sourse_usd_1 = explode($key_usd,$str);
$usd1 = $sourse_usd_1[2];
$sourse_usd_2=explode(">",$usd1);
$usd2 = $sourse_usd_2[4];
$sourse_usd_3=explode("<",$usd2);
$usd = $sourse_usd_3[0];
?>
sorry for poor english:)
